This molecule directly inhibits pyruvate kinase. It can be converted into a molecule which is used in signal transduction, a second messenger known as cyclic AMP. It is generated by oxidative phosphorylation (FOS-for-ih-LAY-shun) in the electron transport chain using its namesake synthase. Theoretically, one glucose produces 36 of these molecules during cellular respiration. For 10 points, name this energy-carrying molecule which contains three phosphate groups.
